It must be said that AMA, the Australian Medical Association, were caught being bedfellows with Greenpeace in 1996, when they both organized a conference in Asia on Health and Global Warming.

So it could be money that has corrupted AMA, or it could be ideology, or it could be both. Anyway, it is shameful of the top Australian doctors’ organization to betray the Hippocratic Oath so squarely.

One letter of protest against AMA, written by an Australian, stated something like: we are getting a taste of what it’s like to live in a third world country, where governments don’t give a fig about their people.
